The next day, I received a call from Patrick. He offered me another job from some modeling agency.

"Ano Tori? Take it or leave it? Magandang deal ito," he said on the other line

"Manager na ba kita Pat?" I chuckled

"Pwede naman. Mahigit isang taon nadin naman tayong magkakilala girl. Para nadin kitang anak, charot!"

I laughed. "Gusto ko kaso masyado pa kasi akong busy e. May volleyball tournament pa ako tapos malapit na din exams namin. Kailan ba yung fashion show?"

"Naku, huwag kang mag-aalala, matagal pa naman. Ininform lang kita kasi alam kong hindi o ito tatanggihan."

"Baka scam 'yan Patrick ah!" 

"Na-trauma ka ba?" he chuckled. "Don't worry beh. Legit ito. Sa mall pa nga gaganapin yung fashion show. Si Miss Marga, yung head ng show. She's scouting young female models to participate in her show. Maliit lang din ang babayaran mo."

"Kikita ba ako?" I joked

"Kung gagalingan mo."

I laughed. "Ako pa ba. Sige Pat. Susubukan kong isingit sa schedule ko, wow, akala mo naman talaga sobrang busy. I can't believe I'm doing a lot of things at nineteen. Nakakaproud wait, naiiyak ako," sabi ko at umarteng nagdadrama

"Ang OA mo, gaga ka talaga!"

"Mag-audition nalang din kaya ako sa PBB? O kaya bilang sex bomb dancer? O kaya dancers sa wowowin?" I laughed even harder

"Oo naku, siguradong pasok na pasok ka diyan."

Sometimes, I just want to be a stripper in a club so that I could make tons of money. I can literally pay for my tuition fee and still have enough money for some other shit.

"Alright," I chuckled. "I'll just call you if I made my decision."

"Okay madam!" he laughed and ended the call

I smiled while staring at my phone. Tumayo ako sa kama at nagtatalon. I couldn't contain my excitement. I'm so happy that I'm gonna be part of a fashion show. This my first time and I already feel nervous. I need to prepare early.

I immediately took my phone and informed my friends about it on our group chat.

Ako:

Omg guys! I have good news. Someone recruited me as a model for a fashion show event. Sa mall siya gaganapin and I'm inviting you guys to come and watch me! 

I waited for their reply but it didn't came. Hindi rin nila sineen. I thought maybe they're just busy so I placed back my phone on the bed and stood up. 

Tumingin ako sa full length mirror ko sa kwarto at nag-practice ng paglakad ko. I wasn't feeling myself so I decided to dress up. I wore a long red backless dress and a black high heels. I also put some accessories to add spice to my look. Then I applied a light ammount of make-up. I looked at myself in the mirror and practiced my walk again. I'm pretty confident when I walk. I feel like I can pull myself together in the fashion show. I feel like I can do well. I even waved imagining that I have an audience in my room. I also smiled and imagined there are cameras everywhere. I did a couple of poses. Fierce, sexy, cute, and hot.

"Damn, I'm so good at this," I said to myself

I'm born to become a model.

Nagulat ako dahil biglang bumukas ang pintuan ko. I saw my mom standing on the doorway. Nanlaki ang mata niya habang nakatingin sa kwarto kong napakagulo.
